Read Mighty Mouse's Thought For The Day - Every Day

This is the story of a tiny kitten - a runt, who was not expected to live. He refused to give in - he struggled against being put to sleep and left to die - even though people mistook him for some kind of alien mouse and not a kitten. His heart is bigger than a mountain - his love is boundless. He is an inspiration to everyone who comes in contact with him

LOOK OUT LONDON 2012

Hi EveryoneI'm sure we all know that the London Olympics is just 2 years away and MM has decided he wants to enter. He's very serious about it. When I asked him what his event would be he said "The Decat-flon"! He's even gone as far as getting himself a trainer

And he's joined a gym - okay - it's a cat gym....but don't tell him that...he'd be so embarrassed!

Of course cycling is great training. But guess who is here for the tour down under who is ALSO in training?

So he decided to do some simple weights work - moving the coffee table

In the end though it was all too much for him. He's still only a little boy.

Don't cry Mighty Mouse - Lord Oliver Monta Purrington. I think you deserve a medal just for making me happy. And there's always the winter Olympics...if we can just get skis for your back paws.

Ohhh... Oliver your not a faylyer...i mean it ...look how far you have come...from a wee tiny thing that resembled a mouse to a strong young man who is getting bigger by the day...thats the stuff that "Champions" are made of and we are so proud of what you and your mummy have achieved.Love and cuddles to all...Sher

Oliver, Oliver, as usual you are shooting for the stars. It is ok to start training slowly. If you ask her nicely Soraya will teach you how to run really, really fast. D'Arcy can also teach you how to duck and weave but he needs to practice too so perhaps you can be training buddies. Make sure Mummy has the TV tuned in for the Winter Olympics. Hugs from the Mesmereyes kids.

Isn't it called tough love? Or is just being a bully and a cranky queen? If Ollie and Mr D are smart they will get together to beat her at her own game. Soraya is surprising me because she was never a very brave girl here, a sook really!

Oliver,You have such a 'kissable' tummy. Maybe you should ask Mr Whooshka for some training advice.I am sure he will recommend extra sleep especially as you are having a growth spurt at the moment.Well! your tail is.

About Mighty Mouse

Born in a litter of 6 to a beautiful Birman queen, the kittens looked to have a good start being normal weight. But within 24 hours, their mother had no milk and the kittens needed to be handraised. By the time he was 11 days old, barely hanging on to life, 2 of the kittens had died. He was the size of a mouse and weighed less than 100grams when he was a week old. His breeder struggled to hand feed the remaining 4 kittens without help, but it was an impossible task. She took him to the vet at 4 weeks to be put to sleep. But something about him persuaded the vet not to put him down. When I first encountered him, HE WOULDN'T STOP PURRING. In order to save the older 3 kittens, MM was destined to die - his luck had run out, and that's when I took him. It was his last chance and all the odds were against him. He weighed 210grams - which is about 7 ounces at 4.3 weeks and was mistaken at the vet's for an exotic Mouse. NOBODY expected him to live. But he had other ideas. You can read his story by following the link and joining Cat World ( a very simple process)- and that in turn has a link to his first few weeks. Enjoy
